Collecting the specimen:
Head over to the permaculture garden. On the far right side there are a row on lilies. Towards the center of the column of lilies, there is a plant with white drizzled looking tracks on it. Take 3 photos of the plant. The first should be a picture of the whole plant. The second should be a picture of just the affected leaf. The last photo should be a picture of the affected leaf with a penny for scale.
Upload your photos into inkscape. Shrink them to the size you want by using the shift key and the magnifying glass icon. Upload a map from openstreetmap.com. You can crop and shrink the map to the area you want. You want this cropped map to be a part of your multipanel figure. Arrange the 3 pictures and the map into a windowpane configuration. The lower right corner should be the map and the lower left should be the photo with a penny to scale. The upper left should be the whole plant and the upper right should just be a photo of the affected leaf.
Arrange them so that there are five spaces between all of them.
You are going to want to create an arrow pointing to the affected leaf. Use the line tool to create a line and then add a marker to the tip of the line you created. You are also going to want to use the text tool to label each photo with a letter distinguishing each one. Use the text tool to do this. You are going to want to make the font big enough to be noticeable. You are also going to want to use fill and stroke to make the font stand out. Starting in the upper left hand corner and going in a clockwise direction, label the photos “a”, “b”, “c”, and “d” respectively.
Use the “group” command to make the picture just a single image. Go into the file menu and select Document properties. Select the option to size the image to the page. Make sure to make the opacity 255.
